The point is a 4th rounder is not likely to be an impact player in any way for at least a while, and that will take some time. Tebow, while inconsistent at best , is an impact guy. Assuming we don't get Manning, there is no reason to trade him for less than a pick that will have his impact. And he COULD develope if they would just put some resources into it. Whether they drafted him or not, they are throwing the baby out with the bathwater, so they can feel good about themselves, but they aren't helping the team...just their egos.

That is true, but I don't see this team interested in developing Tebow. They think Tebow can not run their offense, so had to water down their apparent complex offense, though one guesses it was no more complex than what McDaniels used. The Broncos think getting Manning is so important that they are waiting for him rather than do anything of substance at this point. But if Manning doesn't sign, hey Tim, you're the man we wanted all along.
